How much is "collectivism vs. individualism" discussed outside of Ayn Rand circles? I don't know, which is why I am asking.
I don't like this article -- it seems to be some libertarian argument that communism and fascism and racism are all of the one cloth... I definitely don't think its NPOV. "Collectivism" is a propaganda term used by certain groups -- I don't think it has any NPOV definition at all. And yet this article treats it like its just some matter of fact... -- SJK
I agree that it is non-NPOV libertarian propaganda ... and worse, it is bad non-NPOV libertarian propaganda. I'm a gun-carrying libertarian, and I think it should be vigorously neutered. However, I think there might be a use for it: many philosophical systems do value the group over the individual; e.g. Confucianism. Something good could go here, but what's here now isn't it.
